The dazzling starlight of the halberd

Seiichiro also ate a bowl of dandan noodles with only the soup, put down the empty bowl and slowly said, "This noodle is so chewy, and every bite, this noodle can bounce to the teeth. I actually have such a tough noodle. Eat it once. Liu Xingyao, right?"

"Yes, just wave seniors."

"Don't tell me why the noodles you make are so delicious. The fact that the chewiness of the noodles can snap to the teeth makes people very confused. Can you tell me how you did it?"

The reason Seiichiro asked this was because he felt that something was added to this noodle, otherwise the normal noodle would never be so effective.

This is also the doubt of everyone else.

Liu Xingyao had long expected that they would ask this, and directly took out a bowl of lye in front of everyone.

"That's because I used this!!"

Chapter 39 The Miraculous Alkaline Water

"That's because I used this!!"

Liu Xingyao put the small bowl of lye in front of everyone.

When Seiichiro saw this thing, the mist of his eyes disappeared.

"It turns out that he used this thing!!" Seiichiro was shocked in his heart.

"This...what is this?" asked the outstanding uncle.

The people around also moved their heads over and looked at this bowl of gray and black water.

"This is alkaline water!" Liu Xingyao explained to everyone, "Add some alkaline water before kneading the dough, then put the kneaded dough into the alkaline water to soak it, and then wait until the soaking rises and take it out! The noodles that are made after the water is boiled will be so chewy. And I have to remind you that I only added a few drops of alkaline water when making the noodles, and I did not add a drop of other clean water."

When Chuang Zhen heard this, he couldn't help saying loudly: "Wait...Wait, even if you add a few drops of alkaline water, how can you make such chewy noodles without adding any other water!"

"Chuang Zhen..." Seiichiro stood up and shook his head and smiled. "What he said is true. This is indeed just made by adding these few drops of alkaline water without adding any fresh water!"

"How... how is it possible!" Chuang Zhen felt that this was beyond the scope of his knowledge. He believed that water must be added to the noodles, otherwise it would be impossible to stretch the noodles.

Seiichiro continued, "Chuangzhen, do you remember the black stone I brought back from China last month?"

"I know! But, what does this alkaline water have to do with that stone?" Chuang Zhen wondered.

Seiichiro explained, "That stone is alkali stone. I think Liu Xingyao took it out and used it for his cooking."

"Yes, I am a native of China, and I am very familiar with this kind of stone, so when I saw this stone in the corner of the kitchen, I recognized it at a glance! This is in China in the hinterland of Gansu Province. A place called Lanzhou has been circulating a legendary water called "alkali water". Alkaline water is a liquid extracted from a certain kind of rock in Lanzhou, crushed and then boiled in water. This kind of rock is the loess desert in Lanzhou by farmers First dig a hole in it to burn weeds, and then quickly cool the ashes to make it an artificial rock! The main ingredients in the alkaline water are sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate. Just add a few drops to the dough, The noodles can become very chewy and very Q, and there is no need to use other water!" Liu Xingyao explained in detail.

"That's it, it's no wonder you know so much detail. I didn't expect you to be a Chinese cook!" The outstanding uncle looked at Liu Xingyao with a surprised look.

Chuang Zhen was completely dumbfounded when he heard this!He didn't even know that the stone Seiichiro brought back could have such a magical effect. He had known that he must have used this alkaline water too.

"Damn it, dad, why didn't you tell me that this alkaline water will have such an effect when placed in the dough!" Chuang Zhen asked, staring at Seiichiro.

Seiichiro spread his hands helplessly and said, "I also heard people say that this thing can be added to the dough to make the noodles more chewy, but recently the store is too busy and there is no time to experiment. I have never done it. Tell you!"

After hearing this, Chuang Zhen was surprised, his eyes fell on Liu Xingyao again.How strong is Seiichiro's cooking skills? He knew in his heart that even Seiichiro didn't know the cold knowledge, but the boy who was about his age knew such details?

Is it so clear that it is only because the lye is from the mainland of China and the boy is also Chinese?No, Chuangzhen intuitively told him that the young man in front of him was very skilled in cooking, far above him.

Thinking of this, Chuang Zhen felt that Liu Xingyao standing in front of him was a giant, a giant who could not see his head when he could only lift his head.At this moment, he felt how small and ignorant he was.What if you have been rolling in the kitchen for 12 years, but you still don't know anything about the outside world!

Chuangzhen has been touched deep in his heart.

"But then again, it's not just chewy. Freshly ground fresh flour is fragrant, and it is delicious. The right combination of pork and lettuce is fat but not greasy. The taste produced is intoxicating. !" said the outstanding uncle.

"Yes, this noodle is my special noodle-a famous noodle dish in Sichuan, China-[Sichuan Dandan noodle]." Liu Xingyao said the real name of this noodle.

"Sichuan Dandan noodles and Danzai noodles? So now we are entering the judging and voting stage of this unofficial halberd. You support Chuangzhen’s [Fortunately Pingliu Danzi Noodles]. Please pick up the chopsticks in your left hand and support Liu Xingyao’s [Sichuan] Dan Dan Noodles] Please lift up the chopsticks with your right hand! Let’s start now!"

As soon as Seiichiro's words fell, Seiichiro himself and the outstanding uncle raised their right hands high.After a brief period of pondering, Kurase finally made up her mind to raise the chopsticks in her right hand.

The result came out 3-0, this informal food halberd Liu Xingyao defeated 3-0.

Chapter 40

(After reading this chapter, many people must have a lot of thoughts, but guess what the protagonist is going to do next.)

Chuang Zhen lost, and still lost 3-0 perfectly. For this result, he actually had a foreboding the moment Liu Xingyao took out the lye.The soda stone was kept in the kitchen of his own restaurant for more than ten days, but Chuang Zhen did not realize that it had such an effect, especially in the aspect of noodle making.Liu Xingyao outperformed Chuangzhen for the magical use of lye water, and one more thing, even Chuangzhen didn't find out, only Seiichiro knew about it-that was pork belly!

"Xingyao, when you are making dandan noodles, this pork belly is not made with cut pork belly in the morning, but made with fresh meat from the refrigerator!" Seiichiro said.

Liu Xingyao smiled faintly and nodded: "Has Senior Caibo eat it again? Yes, although the pork belly sliced ​​in the morning is also very fresh, but in order to maximize the deliciousness of Dandan noodles, I cut some pork belly on the spot. come out."

When Chuang Zhen heard this, he was surprised for a long time and couldn't return to his senses!

How could it be possible, how fast should he be!Chuang Zhen thought he was at the same speed as Liu Xingyao, but he didn't expect him to be freshly cut pork belly. This process would take at least a few minutes.And he used the ready-made cut pork belly left in the morning in the kitchen that he used directly, and the gap between the two's cooking was widened again.

Seiichiro looked at Chuang Zhen who was still in the wooded area over there, and instead of showing no sympathy, he laughed and said, "Hey, Chuang Zhen knows the gap between him and others! Boy, you are still far behind, go behave Yuanyue tempers and enlarge your horizons!"

It took a long time for Chuang Zhen to recover and remove the turban on his forehead.

"Are people from Yuanyue as good as you?" Chuang Zhen asked Liu Xingyao with a serious expression on his face.

Seiichiro and Kurase were slightly startled when they saw Sojima's expressions!It was the first time they saw him look so much.

"Hehe, serious! It seems that the arrangement of this food halberd is really right." Seiichiro said with satisfaction in his heart.

"Yes, there are many students who are about the same age as me in Yuanyue. They all have their own unique cooking skills. They are also very powerful! There are also Yuanyue ten outstanding people, they are ten people standing at the apex of Yuanyue. It's unimaginable to be superb!" Liu Xingyao said.

"Yuanyue...School..." Chuangzhen clenched his fists, as if he had made some determination.

After the halberd was over, Liu Xingyao also defeated Chuangzhen in this informal halberd, so next...

"Senior Caibo, you haven't forgotten the condition of informal eating halberd just now!" Liu Xingyao looked at Seiichiro and said.

"Ah, naturally I didn't forget! Come on, let's go inside the house and talk!" Seiichiro finished speaking and walked into the house.

...

The second floor of Xingping Restaurant, this floor is the living area of ​​Xingping father and son.There is a restaurant on the first floor, and the living accommodation on the second floor is well designed.

Inside the house, Liu Xingyao, Seiichiro, and Chuangzhen sat on the floor. There was a table in front of them with three cups of steaming tea.

"I'm also very surprised, why are you so curious about the 69th issue that year, and hasn't Mansamu told you?" Seiichiro said absently while drinking tea.

Liu Xingyao smiled and said, "In fact, when I saw Chef Man Samu, I thought he was just an ordinary cook, but I was even more surprised when I learned that he was the fourth seat of Yuan Yue! Although he did not tell I, but I have probably guessed that in fact, Chef Mansamu, like Senior Caipo, did not graduate either!"

When Seiichiro heard this, the teacup in his hand trembled visibly.

Liu Xingyao didn't say anything and waited for Seiichiro's following.

"Dad, what the hell is going on? Also, why were you called Caibo before!?" Chuang Zhen asked.
